Join us and shake off those winter blues while making good on your resolution to get more exercise! The Fall Prevention Tai Chi program is offered FREE to seniors by Senior Solutions. The instructor is Karen Gautney, certified by Tai Chi Vermont and Tai Chi for Health Institute
Class meets every Wednesday for 8 weeks (January 15 - March 5, 2025) at the Springfield Library. Each class builds on the previous lesson, therefore regular attendance is encouraged.
Tai Chi is often described as meditation in motion. It is clinically proven to reduce the risk of falls and improve balance among older adults. Through slow, gentle movement, participants gain flexibility, muscle strength, improved posture, better balance, and greater concentration. Tai Chi can be practiced either standing or seated.
No experience is needed. Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and well-fitted flat shoes that cover your toes and heels. While targeted to older adults, these classes are appropriate and beneficial for people of all ages who want to experience beginner Tai Chi.
